About
The 18-hole Magnolia Course at Walt Disney World Golf Resort in Lake Buena Vista, FL is a resort golf course that opened in 1971. Designed by Joe Lee and Rocky Roquemore, Magnolia Course at Walt Disney World Golf Resort measures 7505 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 142 and a 76.6 USGA rating. The course features 5 sets of tees for different skill levels. Greens and fairways are bermuda grass.
Of all the Disney courses, the Magnolia supports a greater abundance of wildlife. At any given time, you're likely to see deer, osprey, alligators and turtles. A flock of wild turkeys has brought several tournaments to a standstill while they pecked along its fairways. The course features elevated tees and greens with wide and generous fairways graced by over 1,500 magnolia trees that bloom from late spring to mid-summer. Brightly colored crape myrtles and oleanders, along with beds of blue plumbego and seasonal flowers, add sparkle to an otherwise dense, natural forest.

Unfortunately, the climate of recent has not been conducive to healthy turf growth, but we expect that as the weather warms up again, that the vibrancy of the turf will again return.-Management Photo submitted by Ah1122 on 03/24/2021

Golfer Reviews
Pristine
Staff here were excellent. Great arrival experience. My sister and her husband golf here frequently when they can get a reduced rate. Course is pricey.
Awesome
As with all things Disney, customer is first. From golf bag drop off to golf bag pick up was first class. Course in A+ condition.
Very good with hot deal
First time playing since the redo. Course was in very good shape and the only complaint was the bathroom on the back nine was out of order. Was told it has been out of order for a long time! The course cost in the morning is usually around 225 bucks. Not worth that, but at 135 bucks with a hot deal was worth it. Can’t figure out why on Golf now you go thru the entire procedure and you get rejected in making the time. Have a myriad of problems booking with golf now. Most times better off going to the course website. A bunch of funny things go on with Golf now and there is no, I mean NO customer service. Got rained out after 8 holes at celebration. They tell me to call golf now golf now tells me to call the course! Other horror stories, but let’s move on!
Great Day at Magnolia
I was greeted nicely as a guest. The bag drop and pro shop staff were friendly and personable as was the starter. The course was in great shape and the pace was on time. The cart service was just in time as the lightning struck and the rain fell for a fifteen minute pause in the action.

Well-kept Couse - Highly recommended - Use Golfnow for discounted rates
Beautiful course
Course in very good condition considering the amount of play it gets. Certainly challenging from blues or white tees. I played yellow/red as I’m not a big hitter. Greens good but a bit slower than I prefer.
Beautiful Disney course
Loved to play at Magnolia, beautiful par 3 with Micky’s sand trap! Beautiful, and all very friendly! Thanks you all!
The Grumpy Gauntlet was just that.
Played Magnolia on a reasonably perfect day for golf. Course was in good shape but a bit different than the 1st time I played it. Greens are fairly large and a bit of a challenge to read. They have changed/added a few holes on the back 9 so I had to rely on a rangefinder and not the gps for holes 15-17. Beware of the gators - we did see a couple lurking about!
A Magical Golf Round
Going into this round, I knew the conditions were going to be at least solid and the nods to Disney around the course would be fun. My expectations were blown away. The course conditions were absolutely perfect, the pace of play was perfect (just under 4 hours 8 AM tee time). The course was peaceful and quiet, so much so that we could hear the sounds of the railroad at Magic Kingdom and the ferry boats going back and forth across the lagoon. It was such a cool backdrop for a golf round! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The addition of Grumpy's Gauntlet gets you, and was the reason that I didn't break 80...but I was having such a good time that I didn't even care. One of the best rounds of vacation golf I have ever had. Price-wise, it was comparable with any other nice resort course, but the setting and the nods to Disney as you golf made the high price SO worth it. I can't wait to go back.
